Venom: The Last Dance

fresh

64/100 Venom carries a codex, with the potential to destroy the universe, and is being hunted by really big, gnarly, aliens. I was really digging this film - the banter between Eddie and Venom was great, exciting action sets, interesting characters and a pretty good story - until after the river scene. Then the film stalled big time.…

Okay, here’s the deal with _Venom: The Last Dance_. It’s like ordering your favorite burger and realizing halfway through they forgot the sauce. Tom Hardy? Still killing it as Eddie and Venom—his back-and-forth with himself is weirdly entertaining and even a little emotional. There are some genuinely fun and heartfelt moments that remind you why this duo worked in the first place. But man, the rest? A hot mess.…

I'm typically not a fan of the Marvel universe films. I find them over stated, not especially intelligent and oftentimes, quite repetitive. "Venom" is the rare exception to this rule. For starters there's Tom Hardy, who is, by any measure, an excellent actor. Secondly, there's the interplay between Hardy and Venom which can be genuinely funny.…

I like all the Venom movies. The humour works. Fun to watch Hardy play a puppet. Would have been a 10 without that blast door thing. Still a blast. No deductions for runtime.

Perhaps this was just one sequel too many as the story here is really rather thin, but there's still enough chemistry between "Eddie" (Tom Hardy) and his eponymous symbion to raise a smile or two.…

The other two at the very least were enjoyable. This one, not so much. The villian is forced, the movie feels so chopped up, there's no threat because the creatures and Eddie both just heal each other. It had bad dialogue for some scenes, and a weird sub plot about shoes. Oh, and also, one of Eddie's flashbacks he wasn't even there for.

A solid enough send off for this <em>'Venom'</em> trilogy. <em>'Venom: The Last Dance'</em> is decently amusing and produces enough entertainment with its plot. I didn't personally find it overly funny, though the person a few seats across from me had an absolute blast - never a bad thing seeing people enjoy themselves!…
